Map - Piti, Guam (Piti Municipality)

Piti is a village located on the central west coast of the United States territory of Guam. It contains northern and eastern coastlines of Apra Harbor, including Cabras Island, which has the commercial Port of Guam and the island's largest power plants. Piti was a pre-Spanish CHamoru village and, after Spanish colonization, became the primary port town on Guam. The town was largely destroyed during the 1944 liberation of Guam and the population relocated during the wartime construction of Apra Harbor.

Piti is located along the coastline between the villages of Asan-Maina in the north and Santa Rita in the south. Its inland areas, which include Mount Tenjo (305 m) and Mount Chacao (309 m), borders Yona. Guam Highway 1, known as Marine Corps Drive, runs along the mainland coastline of the village. The Asan Memorial Beach Unit of War in the Pacific National Historical Park is at the northern boundary of Piti and the small hilly peninsula at Asan Invasion Beach is the northern physical marker of the Piti Bomb Holes Marine Preserve. The Preserve off the northeastern coast of the village has two beaches: Tepungan Beach Park and the Pedro Santos Memorial Park. Cabras Island, now artificially connected to the mainland, contains the main power plants for Guam and the Port of Guam and is accessible from the intersection of Marine Corps Drive and Guam Highway 11, known as Cabras Road. The Glass Breakwater that extends westward from Cabras Island protects the northern side of Apra Harbor.

Most of the village population is located uphill of the intersection of Marine Corps Drive and Cabras Road. Jose L.G. Rios Middle School, the Piti Guns Unit of War in the Pacific National Historical Park, Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic Church, and village government buildings are located here. The Guam Veterans Cemetery is located immediately south, at the intersection of Marine Corps Drive and Guam Highway 6, known as Spruance Halsey Drive. Taguag Cemetery is located uphill on Highway 6, which provides southern access to Nimitz Hill, as well as Nimitz Hill Annex in Asan. Immediately south of this intersection is the intersection with Guam Highway 18, which provides access to Drydock Island, a small peninsula extending eastward into Apra Harbor. This provides access to Cabras Marina, military fuel wharves, and the Marianas Yacht Club. The yacht club is on Sasa Bay, another of Guam's marine preserves, located between Drydock Island and Polaris Point to the south. Polaris Point, the home base of Submarine Squadron 15, and other Naval Base Guam coastal area along northern Inner Apra Harbor to the east of Marine Corps Drive fall within Piti. The village boundary with Santa Rita is the Atantano River.

Inland of Marine Corps Drive are two military fuel tank farms under Joint Region Marianas at Sasa Valley and Tenjo Valley. The tank farms are supplied by two fuel wharves at the end of Drydock Island.

The village of Piti contains three NRHP-listed properties on land: the Atantano Shrine, the oldest portion of which commemorates the 1784-85 construction of the Piti-Hagåtña road; the Piti Guns, hauled by CHamoru forced labor into the hills during the Japanese occupation but not in operation at the time of the 1944 liberation; and the Quan Outdoor Oven, a 20th century example of the traditional oven introduced by the Spanish in the 17th century. Two NRHP-listed shipwrecks, the SMS Cormoran (1909) and Tokai Maru, that lie at the bottom of Apra Harbor are technically within Piti.
